Davina was a more quieter member of the cast and simply got on with her business in season 1 and 2... That was until she made a comment about Romain's engagement ring choice, leading to her being axed from the guest list by the French man.


At the end of season 2, Davina was attempting to list a mansion owned by billionaire Adnan Sen for $80 million, something which was still ongoing in season 3. Although Davina occasionally pops up on the show, she's no longer a main cast member.

Christine Quinn

Christine Quinn is one of the most talked-about cast members of Selling Sunset, with her lavish parties and no-nonsense personality.


In season 2 of Selling Sunset, Christine announced her engagement to retired businessman Christian Richard, with the pair throwing a very eccentric engagement party.


Season 3 was also massive for Christine, with her lavish wedding being filmed for the show, as she walks down the alter in a stand-out BLACK dress.


In February 2021, Christine announced she was pregnant with her first child, with the gender reveal reportedly due to play out in season 4. Christine welcomed her baby boy in May.


As Christine has now left The Oppenheim Group, she will not appear in future series.

Romain Bonnet

He's the French model that stole the heart of Mary Fitzgerald (and us), with the pair tying the knot in season 2. Viewers got to see the stubborn side of Romain after his argument with Davina, which led to him not backing down over the guest list plans.


Romain also now works for The Oppenheim Group as a trusted contractor, with him doing construction work for the company's brand new office.

Vanessa Villela

Former actress Vanessa Villela has joined the cast of Selling Sunset for series 4, after making her way into the real estate industry.
